20ft Shipping Container Bar and 10ft Cellar Case Study

Our client approached us with a brief specification to provide a container bar and cellar unit for a very well-known football stadium. After discussing the project over the telephone we arranged a meeting at the Lion Containers head office, to discuss the project in more detail and agree on a final specification. The client was a manufacturer of traditional hand pull beer pumps and associated drink dispensing equipment, based in West Yorkshire.

20ft Shipping Container Bar Specification

A 20ft new (once shipped) side opening container with 50/50 bi-fold doors was supplied.

The interior of the container cargo doors were lined with 12mm ply to the 20ft open side, with no insulation.

The interior and exterior of the container and door lining was prepared, masked and painted black with self-priming specialised container paint.

A full length bar was supplied and fitted along both of the 20ft sides. The bar frame and structure was constructed from steel box-section with a veneered worktop surface. The front bar had a 1 tier shelf in between.

A channel frame was supplied and fitted to both sides of the facing bar section, to allow a section of box-section steel to sit securely in place during transit. This was to stop the fridges and equipment moving. The box section steel sections were held in place with a shoot bolt design when in use and to be fully removable whilst in situ.

A secure railing constructed from steel box-section was fitted around the top of the container.

The container roof was re-enforced and strengthened with steel sheet and supports to hold a weight of at least 3 tonnes. Weight was distributed relatively evenly via the beer storage containers.

An aperture was cut, and a steel box section frame surround was fitted. A L500m x H200mm 45 degree louvred vent was installed to avoid water ingress. Paintwork was blown in with self-priming specialised container paint.

A 150mm x 150mm opening aperture was cut, and surrounded with steel box section. Paintwork was blown in with self-priming specialised container paint.

The build was completed in just 8 weeks, and a member of our team attended a sign off with the client to ensure all specifications were correct and in place. Lion Containers Ltd arranged delivery and off-loaded the containers in a football stadium, where they were positioned and ready for a final fit out and branding.
